EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into the enchanting world of a Victorian Christmas past, as depicted in this charming antique print of Goldilocks and the Three Bears. Dating back to the 1890s, this exquisite image graced the front of a sliding Christmas card, complete with a pull tab. The intricately detailed scene unfolds amidst a lush, green landscape, where Goldilocks, with her golden tresses flowing behind her, makes a hasty escape from the angry bears' home. The cozy, mauve-hued cottage, adorned with floral borders and elegant edging, invites a sense of warmth and nostalgia. Delicate pansies and other flowers bloom in abundance, their vibrant colors contrasting beautifully against the cool autumn leaves that have fallen to the ground. Goldilocks, with a mischievous glint in her eyes, has been running through the forest, leaving a trail of chaos in her wake. She has tasted the porridge that was too hot, sat in the chair that was too hard, and slept in the bed that was too small. Now, with the bears closing in, she makes a desperate bid for freedom, her long, ginger hair streaming behind her. This print, with its intricate details and timeless charm, offers a glimpse into the magic and wonder of a bygone era. A true treasure for collectors of antique Christmas cards and lovers of Victorian art, it remains a beautiful reminder of the enchantment and joy that the holiday season brings.
